Re: Reposted for clarity
Well, so far my plan is for Frank to post after the mod says it's OK, but to add an OOC note that no one should start a thread knocking on Hell's door for L. At least I hope that's how this stuff works.
Really? XD I make poor Frank out of whole cloth so much I'm kind of charmed if people like him. And while he has little to no social skills he's not going to expect L not to be snappish, and he's not the smothering type anyway. He's just going to feel guilty and project stuff about his son onto L, but he's not going to push comfort on him. (Of course, his player having read one too many fics about Pyramid Head and James isn't going to help all this...)
His (probable) son wasn't the easiest person on Earth to get along with anyway, in my opinion, and neither was his daughter-in-law toward the end of her life, so I think Frank is used to "snappish" if anything.
